How are an audiologist and a speech language pathologist different?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hearing vs speaking: An audiologist treats diseases related to hearing, often with mechanical hearing aids. A speech pathologist helps people to speak more clearly, be it due to a cleft palate, stuttering, etc.
